Troy Phelan is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. His heirs, to no one's surprise--especially Troy's--are circling like vultures.

Nate O'Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who's lived too hard, too fast, for too long. His second marriage in a shambles, and he is emerging from his fourth stay in rehab armed with little more than his fragile sobriety, good intentions, and resilient sense of humor. Returning to the real world is always difficult, but this time it's going to be murder.

Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and encumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil.

In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament.

Pressestimmen

A compulsory page-turner. Newsweek

Entertaining. The New York Times Book Review

Absorbing . . . The pages fly by. Chicago Tribune

His hordes of fans won t be disappointed: Grisham includes his trademark legal wrangling, zippy plot and engaging minor characters. The Testament is unabashedly spiritual without being doctrinaire. USA Today

Seductive . . . Grisham knows how to tell a story. The Denver Post

Complex and satisfying. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The first two chapters . . . are good, dirty fun. Grisham shows a new lightness of touch here: the parts of The Testament that deal with the legal profession fairly snap along. Los Angeles Times

Holds the reader to the end . . . The Testament straddles two worlds: the familiar haunts of courtrooms, legal conferences, and judges chambers and the exotic wilds of Brazil. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Grisham fans . . . will love The Testament. He s a master of character and motivation. The Plain Dealer

Grisham writes with insider knowledge, an expert appreciation of the elegant legal gambit, and real relish at the unexpected things that can come out when smart, principled lawyers who ve done their homework ask dishonest witnesses the right questions. The Boston Globe
